What is homecare oxygen therapy?
What It Is
Homecare oxygen therapy is a doctor-prescribed medical treatment that helps people with low oxygen levels breathe more easily at home. It delivers medical-grade oxygen to support your lungs when they can’t do the job on their own. This therapy improves oxygen supply to vital organs like your brain and heart, helping you feel more alert, active, and comfortable day to day.
Why It's Needed
If you have a condition like COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, or heart failure, your oxygen levels may drop below healthy levels—especially during sleep or activity. When this happens, oxygen therapy reduces symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and dizziness, while also protecting your organs from long-term damage due to low oxygen.
How It Works at Home
At home, oxygen is delivered using a stationary oxygen concentrator, which pulls in room air and filters out pure oxygen for you to breathe through a nasal cannula or mask. These devices offer a continuous flow of oxygen and are easy to use, quiet, and safe. Respocare’s support team provides full setup, patient education, and ongoing assistance to make the process simple and stress-free.
How Do I Get It?
Oxygen is considered a prescription medication, so your doctor or specialist must first confirm that you need it. Once we receive your oxygen script, Respocare provides a full, holistic homecare service — including equipment delivery, professional installation, and personalized training.
